The disadvantages of cupping
One , damage the skin
Everyone should have a better understanding of the operation method and working principle of cupping. It mainly uses a cup and the skin to form a closed space, and then consumes the oxygen in the closed space through combustion, thereby reducing the closed space. In this way, the stagnation in the body is sucked out through the pores. Nowadays, cupping sometimes does not use open flame burning, but its basic work is still the same as that of traditional cupping. The stagnation in the body is sucked out of the body through the pores. , will cause the pores to relax. If the relaxation time is too long or the relaxation force is too strong, it will easily cause the pores to become thicker, thus making the skin rough. Therefore, we remind everyone to control the time and frequency when cupping. The time of each cupping It should not exceed five minutes, and the interval between cupping sessions in the same place should not be less than three days.
2. It is easy to induce stroke
Traditionally, cupping is generally used for physical therapy. However, with the popularity of weight loss, many people use cupping for weight loss. Experts specifically remind, Since the skin pores are in a state of relaxation after cupping, it is easy for the cold air from the external environment to enter the body and induce stroke. Therefore, after cupping a large area, you must be careful not to expose the cupping area to the outside, and do a good job of keeping warm. Also, be careful not to take a shower or wipe the cupping area immediately after cupping.
3. Frequent cupping can easily cause skin infection
If you often cupping, be sure to prevent these undesirable things. Frequent cupping can lead to skin infection. Many people think that cupping needs at least half an hour to be effective. Traditional Chinese medicine reminds that cupping actually varies according to the size, material and negative pressure of the cup. However, it is generally appropriate to take no more than ten minutes from lighting the fire to sliding the can to taking it off. Because the main principle of cupping lies in negative pressure rather than time, if the cupping time is too long under high negative pressure until the blisters are pulled out, it will not only damage the skin, but may also cause skin infection.
Darkening indicates greater moisture.
